There’s a boy Don’t know what he’s hiding He’s got his mother’s eyes and his daddy’s charm Just the right mix And there’s a girl She knew where to find him In the local bar smoking in the dark It was perfect timing But what they both Didn’t know Is how far this thing would go And they might not want the truth But if they do Play ’em our home movies If they wonder who I was Even if they don’t Then play ’em just because Let ’em see the highlights And don’t forget the lows Everybody’s got a story no one knows So just let ’em play until the credits roll There’s a story I didn’t know we’d write it However long it took It’s an open book If you love surprises And there’s a song Underneath the silence You can hear the crowd Sing the words out loud In just the right pitch But what we both didn’t know Is how far this thing would go And we might not make it through But if we do Play ’em our home movies If they wonder who I was Even if they don’t Then play ’em just because Let ’em see the highlights And don’t forget the lows Everybody’s got a story no one knows So just let ’em play until the credits roll There’s nothing I could be without these memories Even though they might not show the best of me Play ’em our home movies If they wonder who I was Even if they don’t Then play ’em just because Let ’em see the highlights And don’t forget the lows Everybody’s got a story no one knows So just let ’em play until the credits roll
